Climbing by ThePhantomofParis, literature

Climbing

It's just as they're letting us go strap on the harnesses that I realize just how much of a mistake this is. When they start giving us the safety lesson for this place, I start scanning the room for a possible exit route. No luck—the only door would take me right past my teacher. Unless, of course, I want to climb. Not happening, I promise myself. "People who are belaying for the climbers, listen up. This next part is the part where you're literally holding someone else's life in your hands," the instructor says, the smile that she flashes to all of us contrasting her tone. How comforting, I think dryly, gazing warily up at the synthe

Literature

Into the Dark

A journey through the dark Into the unknown. Leaving my familiar world behind For another. Can't turn back now I can only go forward. Mother, I'm sorry. Trapped here...or am I? Safe, protected, loved... But alone. Or am I? Am I alone? Pomegranates. One seed, two seeds, three seeds, four, five, six. Six seeds. A journey through the light Out of the unknown. Leaving my strange new world behind For another. Mother, I have returned.

The Ballad of Franz Liebkind

There are two sides to every story. Two different points of view. You’ve only been told one— I know the other. No one is all good or all bad Surely you must know that. We only followed orders There are two sides to every story. There are no words for what we did But did you ever stop to think that maybe We had no choice in the matter? There are two sides to every story. What would you have— I WAS NEVER A MEMBER OF THE NAZI PARTY!

Literature

Mimi: No Day But Today

Hey there. They call me Mimi. Mimi Marquez. But my name is just a small part of who I am. As for just who that might be…I’m not even sure I really know, to be honest. I’m a dancer, for one thing. Ever heard of the Catscratch Club? Yeah, that’s where I work. Glamorous, huh? Not really…but what can I say? It’s a living. Pays the bills…sometimes. Maybe. If I feel like it. I mean, when everything is rent anyway… I’m doin’ it again, aren’t I? Talkin too much. All right…what else do ya wanna know? I’m nineteen, but I’m old for my age. I live in the same apartment building as two

Literature

So Impatient

You are like thunder Bringing me down, blowing everything asunder I am like lightning Powerful flash gone before you can reach me This is the way it has to be Hair darker than the deepest chocolate Stormy blue eyes pulled me beyond these little walls The smell of cherries on your hands, on me Lips and words so equally demanding The deepest touch is Pulling me down, building on all of my urges A thoughtless whisper will Power up the part of me I'd buried well This is the way it has to be Heart darker than the deepest smile Stormy black thoughts pulled me beyond clean white halls The taste of passion on your tongue, on me

Everything Will Be Alright by ThePhantomofParis, literature

Literature

Everything Will Be Alright

Christine Daae burst through the doors of the Opera Populaire, hair wild, heart thumping, eyes wide with terror. She stumbled blindly up the steps of the grand marble staircase, paying no attention to the activity around her. Those she passed--Meg, a stagehand, M. Reyer--might as well not have been there at all. A string of thoughts was all she could focus on, memories that had been happening only a short time ago. They raced through her head, repeating themselves over and over. The cemetery......her father's grave......Raoul......the fire......and that voice. That voice. She charged into her dressing room, letting her cloak tumble to the g

But sure a body's bound to be a dreamer

"Back off, will ya? You're way too close to her. She'll be scared half to death when she opens her eyes and the first thing she sees is a bowtie-wearing idiot." The female voice, punctuated by a uniquely Scottish accent, was the first thing that I became aware of after, apparently, returning to consciousness. The second was the extreme pain in my head that made it feel like even opening my eyes was going to be a struggle. The third, weirdly enough, was a light sort of whirring coming through the ground on which I layas if the very floor itself were alive. "Bow ties are cool," came another voice, this time male and much, much closer to

And I've no doubt there's truth in what they say

Once upstairs, I put my shoes on and tried to chat with my family, who were bundling up and preparing to go to the fundraiser for the class of 2011my senior classwhich my school was having at the local Dairy Queen. Always easy to please, my brother was thrilled that my mom had given him permission to have his ice cream before dinner instead of after, but I was more subdued as I buttoned up my coat and slipped on my purple striped gloves. The whole family piled into my mom's purple Jeep, and I leaned my head against the cool glass of the car window and stared sullenly out. My mom had done her best to scrape much of the ice and snow

"Are you ready? We're leaving in five minutes!" my mother called down the stairs, startling me out of my reverie. I had been sitting at my ancient but lovable Windows 98, Gregory, for the past hour, but although I had an unfinished AP US History paper due the next day, I had barely touched it. Instead, my eyes kept wandering back to look at the date on the top of my Word documentJanuary 27, 2011. Rabbit Hole Day. Exactly 364 days before, I had fallen down a Rabbit Holeareas of strong magic that appear on the anniversary of the great Lewis Carroll's birthday to transport people on magical adventures, often with their favorite fic
